Source: PE

By PATRICK O’NEILL

The board received the complaint from the United Nurses Association of California/Union of Health Care Professionals on Monday, Feb. 22, alleging the hospital used “coercive” actions, statements and promises of benefits to stymie contract bargaining, labor board records show.

“Our stance is there is no union here anymore,” Uffer said.
